I've been using it since closed beta and I still use it but if you haven't already spent a lot of SP on it, don't bother. This build is all about combat rifles, rail rifles, and tanks. Even with proficiency 4 I still struggle to get kills and every rail rifle and sniper targets you when they see you up high.
During one build, hit detection was crap and everyone decided to make the MD the FOTM. This lead to tears and eventually a big, unnecessary nerf. So now it's near worthless.

Mcfurious is another bitter MD vet that I have known to use it for quite some time. I think that the current **** poor state has more to do with improvements in other styles than any direct MD nerf, but the thought remains the same.... Don't bother skilling into the mass driver. It is all I know how to use and would GLADLY take a respec out of it(at a 30% SP loss even).
What would you think about a direct damage buff? I'd be ok with leaving the splash damage and radius where they are now if it had an extra 40 points (or more) direct damage across the board. That way you could still kill things with it but you'd have to actually hit people rather than relying on the splash.

It'd be nice if it had more range too. I'm sick of watching my rounds explode before they even hit.
I'd rather they just take the sights off personally. They're bulky and useless. The hipfire sights are just fine.
